Study: Latino Children Face Many Barriers to Healthy Eating, Physical Activity
La Violencia de México nos alcanza Hasta Cleveland
La delincuencia y los secuestros que actualmente sufre México, han afectado a la Ciudad de Cleveland Oh
Por Ivan Gomez
Key preliminary findings include:

  • main barriers to healthy eating and physical activity among Latino children include lack of infrastructure that supports walking and biking and unhealthy school lunches; and
  • community stakeholders and school staff agreed that lack of transportation, Spanish-speaking parents and the cost of out-of-school sports were the main barriers that keep Latino children from participating in organized sports.

The study suggests that Latina mothers understand the variety of factors that impact their children’s diets and levels of physical activity. These barriers demonstrate the need to develop policies that support healthy changes in our environments and schools.
